The song recounts the death of Hattie Carroll, a Black hotel worker in Baltimore, after an assault by the wealthy white tobacco farmer William Zantzinger (spelled "Zanzinger" in the lyrics). Rather than presenting the story as a detached report, Dylan builds a moral indictment of racial inequality and the justice system, culminating in the refrain's final emotional reversal after the court hands down what many viewed as a remarkably light sentence.

House of the Rising Sun
Originally posted on July 13, 2018
Remembering Dave Van Ronk! It was his arrangement of House of the Rising Sun that Bob Dylan recorded for his debut album.

They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one”#clarenceashley #gwenfoster #georgiaturner #leadbelly #PeteSeeger #JoanBaez #ninasimone #davevanronk #bobdylan #theanimals
